The Council is set to discuss the situation with the Energy Ministry on 15 July. The price surge could hit households relying on pellet heating.

Should the government regulate pellet prices to protect consumers?

China tests truck-mounted electromagnetic drone catapult that needs no runway

China's Beijing Institute of Technology released footage of three eight-wheeled trucks interlocking to form a road-mobile electromagnetic catapult capable of launching a propeller-driven drone without a runway. The system miniaturises the EMALS technology already used on China's newest aircraft carrier. Transported in standard shipping containers, it could theoretically be deployed anywhere in the world.

"The Westies" on MGM+: Simmons and Welliver lead a handsome but generic gangster drama

"The Westies," now streaming on MGM+, follows the conflicts within and between Irish and Italian crime organisations in 1980s New York. The show stars J.K. Simmons and Titus Welliver and was created by Chris Brancato, co-creator of "Narcos" and "Godfather of Harlem." Critics find it visually polished but narratively generic.

Pokémon Pokopia tops 4 million copies sold on Switch 2

Pokémon Pokopia, a social simulation game released on Nintendo Switch 2 by Koei Tecmo, has sold over four million copies, making it a surprise hit. Koei Tecmo president and CEO Hisashi Koinuma told Famitsu that the team had "no real expectations" for the title before its launch. Despite this, the team aimed to make it the best-selling spin-off in the Pokémon franchise — a goal they appear to have achieved.

Does Pokémon Pokopia deserve its status as the best-selling Pokémon spin-off?

"Hobbit" humans of Flores likely wiped out by volcanic eruption, study finds

A study published in Communications Earth & Environment presents new evidence on the extinction of Homo floresiensis, the miniature hominids nicknamed "hobbits" who lived on the Indonesian island of Flores. Researchers conclude that a volcanic eruption, not contact with modern humans, was responsible for the species' disappearance. The findings could resolve one of paleoanthropology's longest-standing mysteries.

Was a volcanic eruption the main cause of the Flores "hobbit" extinction?

Complex US patent process squeezes out small inventors

Independent inventors and small entities in the US are increasingly struggling to protect their innovations due to a complex and costly patent process. The system tends to favour large corporations that can afford prolonged legal battles, leaving individual inventors at a significant disadvantage. Without reform, the system risks stifling grassroots innovation.

Should the US patent system be simplified to protect small inventors?
